The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this week as Everton lock horns with Mauricio Pochettino's Chelsea side in an important clash at Stamford Bridge on Monday.
Chelsea vs Everton Preview
Everton are currently in 16th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best this season. The Merseyside outfit edged Burnley to a narrow 1-0 victory last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Chelsea, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table and have been inconsistent so far this season. The Blues were held to a 2-2 draw by Sheffield United in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.
